Make It Colourful - Kids Challenge

Hi! Welcome to the Kids Challenge today at Make It Colourful. My name is Elena and I am 12 years old. It's the kids' turn to join the fun this month and we have to color something PINK. Here is my card:

When I saw this cute mushroom house from Make It Crafty I knew I wanted to use that image for my card and I paired her up with a mini Magnolia (Tilda with Spring bundler mini) image to create this easel card. I also added the Magnolia snail to my card. I added stickles to the mushroom house. I also used a Martha Stewart punch for my butterflies and added stitch lines to show where the butterflies flew. My chipboard hearts embellishment is from MIC.

Hi Elena! When I first saw your card, I thought your mom made it! You're coloring is excellent with great shading! I love copics too :) This is a FABULOUS card sweetie! So glad your mom let us know about your blog. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Elena, this is so cute! I love you made it an easel card which is one of my favorites! Your coloring and designing is over the top! All the extra's you put: butterflies, stickles, snail, hearts and cutting out Tilda just made the entire card POP! It is so gorgeous and your how old???? Wow awesome job!!

Wow Elena, you sure do take after your Mum and I'd say those art classes are certainly paying off. Gorgeous colouring and you used one of my favourtie images. My niece also did a card but as she doesn't live with me she doesnt have access to prisma pencils and all the crafty goodies I have, but she did a great job. Hugs Tracy x

You are an amazing little crafter. Your color shading and coloring are absolutely beautiful. I'm so ashamed, cause your shading is 100% better than mine!! Be proud of your creation cause it is awesome.Keep up your creativity.

Hi Elena,I have had a great time looking through the marvellous work on your blog :o)Todays card is definitely one of your best - at least I think so!You can colour with the Copics better than I can!!!I am so enthralled with your wonderful scene. Such a terrific job on the whole card. Love the shading on the roof and of course the BLING! :o)Little Tilda is most adorable and I love how you incorporated her in your scene.I bet your mom can see that soon you will be just as good as she is and the two of you will be trying to out do each other when making cards LOLBig hugs, Candy
